History

Tomasz, our son, brother and best friend is 52 years old. He’s got two sons and a cat. He’s passionate about music, cinema and good literature and enjoys cooking, cycling and skiing in winter.

On the 4th of September after an epileptic attack he was taken to a hospital in Warsaw, Poland, where after a month of waiting he underwent an operation during which 98% of the brain tumour was removed. Two weeks later we received the histopathological results: glioblastoma multifigural (4th level) GBM IV.

Now we are waiting for the date of radio and chemotherapy. We already know that standard treatment in Poland doesn’t cover more than these therapies. It does not give a chance to get rid of the GBM IV. The tumour can grow again at any time. A long, exhausting treatment and unequal fight with the glioblastoma multifigural is ahead of us.

Around the world there are alternative, commercial ways of GBM-IV treatment, which are extremely expensive. Each of them is connected with chemotherapy. We are thinking of one of these methods and we are now collecting money that will enable us to rescue Tomasz’s life. The additional costs are medicines, commuting and medical consultations. We are taking into account the following therapies:

We want to make use of every possible chance to stop the glioblastoma multifigural, also by using the methods and medicines not available in Poland. Thanks to Your help we can continuously fight with the cancer and enjoy every day without the illness.
